I remember getting to the cinema early for Dick Tracy, expecting there to be a lineup like there was for Batman the previous year. There ... wansn't. But boy do I love that Madonna album!

There were 71 episodes of Muppet Babies between 2018 and 2021 on Disney Jr. Must've done something right to last that much longer than The Muppets on ABC.

It's definitely not a mistake to leave Paul Feig's name out of the marketing (though Lionsgate left it in when promoting A Simple Favor).

It should absolutely air on HBO as 'actual television,' not just Max. Surprised they didn't go that way.

Universal really went hard on sequels this summer. We missed out on the likes of an Oppenheimer in their lineup.

I was watching A Quiet Place: Day One on Netflix and, aside from making the case for Lupita Nyong'o as my favourite living actor, it reminded me of your thoughts on silent retreats and I'm thinking this series' premise must be the most terrifying idea in the world for you?

I'm glad Sinners was a huge hit, but no, an R-rated horror movie is not four-quadrant. It was for adults, not young children.

The worst were those based on R-rated properties in the 80s and 90s. Rambo, RoboCop and Starship Troopers all had kids' TV cartoons.

Fair. It was quite an accomplishment. But the only movies after Endgame that have done well have felt (similarly to Endgame) like finales. I really think the audience has moved on before Feige realized it.

It's a horror movie. A horror movie can be about the Black experience. A horror movie can be about the immigrant experience. A horror movie can tell the story of marginalized people. A horror movie can use allegory. A horror movie can even get nominated for Best Picture ....

Also, its presence on Netflix fuelled its theatrical ticket sales. So ... is that the model?
Peter Saunders (@petersaunders.bsky.social) reply parent
It's great that it's popular! And Netflix paid enough for it, it was profitable before it streamed. But streaming in itself brought no profits. And the brief theatrical window brought in ... nearly as much as Sony had already profited ($20M), but nowhere near enough to fund another original.
